Some time ago, at the beginning of the year, we saw the presentation of the new iMac from Apple. In this case, it was the renewal of a team to adapt more to new times, with a 24-inch screen and with the new M1 chip. However, since Apple has not launched a new, larger version, which means that users who need it can only go for the previous 27-inch model, something that not everyone comes to be convinced of.
For this same reason, a few days ago we knew from the hand of famous analyst Mark Gurman that Apple was preparing a larger version of this iMac and that it could arrive at any time, assuming an improvement of similar size to that of the models of the beginning of the year. However, recently, it looks like Apple’s decisions have changed and the new, bigger iMac won’t arrive until 2022.
The “big” iMac will not arrive until next year to focus on the new MacBook Pros
As we mentioned, in this case the well-known filter dylandkt, which has been successful several times before product launches, shared on twitter his ideas regarding the launch of the new larger iMacs, stating that, Although at the end of the year this team is ready to go, Apple will wait a few more months..
Just to explain those wondering, the top-of-the-line iMac isn’t expected to release in Q4 alongside the other M1X Macs. Apple just doesn’t want their devices to compete for attention and delays in product releases have led to this timeline.

In this case, it looks like it would all be tied to the launch of the renewed MacBook Pro that would arrive at the end of the year, which makes a lot of sense. If these teams are launched alongside the bigger iMacs, they can cancel each other’s sales, which the company intends to avoid.. That way, it might make more sense to see these teams launch with the MacBook Air renewal early next year, as they are teams for different ranges and types of users.
As for the characteristics of this team, the truth is that for the moment there is nothing guaranteed. It could integrate the M1X chip that would come with the new MacBook Pros, or be the first to make the jump to higher power with a new processor. more modern. What is not expected is that, at least initially and in the most basic versions, it will arrive with Intel processors. Apple wants to gradually bring all of its equipment to its land with Apple Silicon chips.
